Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
Neither Belzy or Porscha were on Guillos wagon. Maf were on every wagon except the Guillo (lack of flips) and TSP (wolf)
I find it unlikely that Maf completely avoided Guillos wagon. The POE of remaining players from Guillos wagon has at least 1 Maf, likely 2

Let’s let this idea marinate for a little while.Sloonei wrote: ↑Fri Feb 11, 2022 3:05 pmIf there is reason to reconsider Porscha and Belzy it is this: They were cleared by Alexa specifically. They were both already comfortable town reads, and had very deliberately linked themselves together in the thread. But then Alexa faked an outburst where she shouted out their role(s) as "toxic masons" to justify their connection to one another.falcon45ca wrote: ↑Fri Feb 11, 2022 2:50 pm Can someone remind me about Belzy & Porscha?
Like, if they're confirmed, why/how, and why are they still alive?
Alexa claimed to have learned this as the town role cop. We now know that she was not any sort of role cop or investigative role at all. However, she also had information about nutella's role on Day 1 of the game which turned out to be accurate (I think? I wasn't fully present and my memory may be wrong), so it's not unlikely that the mafia team has some sort of role cop ability and Alexa simply chose to act as a mouthpiece for that. Her report on Belzy and Porscha could be accurate.
However, now that we know Alexa's emotional outburst during which she "revealed" this information about Belzy and Porscha was fake (as in, her emotions were faked), we should call into question her motives. Was it just Alexa's attempt to secure her place in the towncore by providing accurate information about a pair of town roles? Or was it a more nefarious attempt to clear herself along with two teammates who had already backed themselves into a corner via association with one another?

dumb. I don't think that's a sound argument. I was *not* a comfortable town read when alexa was trying to save me from c4's tunnel day 1. which I outlined yesterday, I thought was suspicious of her. belzy was then forced to out us as a potential mech pair to save me from lynch day 1. alexa was reading me as town for what I can only assume is b/c she was trying to get on my good side. alexa did fake an outburts, but my outburst back was very real when multiple people have read it as not real. I was extremely upset and didn't understand why she would do it. I didn't know how to read it.
also, as has been pointed out, me nor belzy argued that it was incorrect. which means... it's probably true. and the only people who would know if it was true or not would be other mafia since they obviously had some kind of role cop.
there is no way you can say me and belzy were confirmed town before role reveal AND be wolves backed into a corner in the same thought process. I know you aren't playing like that rn frfr!!!!
"They were both already comfortable town reads"
" two teammates who had already backed themselves into a corner via association with one another" both are pushes to read us as mafia and both are wrong and makes me feel worse about your position in my poe. how nice is it that me and belzy with confirmed roles as town are still alive so that we can maybe get voted out by sloonei instead of shot since there are stronger roles than me and belzy

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
I am town, Porscha. I am not making that argument because I believe it must be right. I am making that argument because I am becoming increasingly wary that we have miscleared somebody. If this is the case, you and Belzy stand out. You were cleared by a player who has since flipped mafia in what was obviously a fabricated emotional outburst from her. I think it is worth reconsidering our reads on you at this stage of the game.
Before typing this post, I had typed out my mechanical claim. I was about to hit submit, but thought I'd keep trying to fight my way out of the POE the old fashioned way instead. I would still prefer not to expose myself to the soup at this stage, but if the game can't progress out of the assumption that I am mafia, then I fear I will need to claim sooner rather than later.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
i'm willing to believe you are still town, but idk why you need to try and open case against me and belzy as if there isn't a perfect good poe between jpic, lp, sabie, dya, and reach of even falcon if we believe he's deep wolfing and saving m!creature. reaching for me and belzy just seems weird as if there isn't other options b/c we "miscleared"... there are some who aren't cleared at all, so like?

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
This is not a thing that I said.
You and Belzy were both being treated as town reads by the majority of the thread. Not "confirmed", and probably not universal either. But if there was a towncore at that point, you two were in it.
At the same time, however, you two had clearly and obviously linked yourselves together. When I say that you were "backed into a corner", I mean that you and Belzy, if mafia, could not do anything to unlink yourselves from one another. You had clearly and blatantly shielded each other. If you are mafia and alexa is your partner, this was her attempting to provide the two of you with justification for that strong connection in the thread.
I do find it a bit hard to believe. But it is easier to believe than a world where I am mafia.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
I am considering all angles here as well. All of those names are still in the POE. But I have spent some time trying to consider a world where LP is town. And in that world, I feel like we're missing something major. In that world, the first place I look is at the two players who were very publicly cleared by a member of the mafia team in what was very clearly a staged outburst from her.Porscha wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 12:06 am i'm willing to believe you are still town, but idk why you need to try and open case against me and belzy as if there isn't a perfect good poe between jpic, lp, sabie, dya, and reach of even falcon if we believe he's deep wolfing and saving m!creature. reaching for me and belzy just seems weird as if there isn't other options b/c we "miscleared"... there are some who aren't cleared at all, so like?

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
While I am not ruling these people out as suspects:
I struggle to see dya as mafia because they killed Marmot on Day 1 when they were absolutely not in a position to remain invested in this game longterm. Shooting a teammate on Day 1 is not a move I would expect a mafia member to make in dya's position.
I struggle to see JPIC as mafia simply because he passes the eye test. I also felt that JPIC and Mac treated him in a way that I would not expect from teammates.
I feel that sabie is town because she has a believable tone, has appeared distressed about the suspicion against her in a way that seems honest, and because dya has suggested that all of these things are reflected in their private chat as well.
LP remains as a suspect, but some of their behavior today has had me second guessing this. Additionally, I am struggling to identify the last remaining mafioso in the world where LP is bad.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
yeah there's no way I don't just get bussed or thrown to the wolves (no pun intended) day 1 instead of having 1 out of the few wolves put themselves out there like that. I highly doubt most people here play like that b/c it seems dumb to do, but idk, maybe it's just a thing people do sometimes and I wouldn't know.Sloonei wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 12:07 amThis is not a thing that I said.

My thoughts are not concrete. I am actively trying to solve the game right now. That means considering all angles. "Considering all angles" will necessarily mean that I voice some things that are not correct. That could be this. It could be the suspicion against LP, or a new case that I haven't discovered yet. We will see.
Any world that has me as mafia is wrong and I am doing what I can to demonstrate that.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
I dunno I feel like most players except like LP and JPIC are playing with the same assumptions of sabie / dya possible, with LP, JPIC, maybe you (sloon) are in poe.
by way of understanding I see myself, belzy, falcon, and therefore also creature as confirmed town. so unless falcon and creature pull a sick 180 on us then I see us the confirmed town at this moment
I think it's good sabie didnt shoot pao. I know dya shot marmot but it's hard to read them as of recent just due to lack of posts. I feel LP comes off as legit as far as their role and how it interacted with alexa (who I also would have maybe given vest to early on in game) and it might have just been unlucky.
jpic talks townie but they are also only person without some kind of role claim to some degree and unfortunately it just looks kinda bad for them. like idk I feel like also pao could have just revealed and then saved himself from getting voted off and since mafia has *still* not souped then like idk. maybe jpic is goon with no role abilities trying to make it out before even his other teammate tbh. possible neeko is trying same thing by lying about her role and then framing that she role abilities b/c of alexa is possible.
also it's confirmed sabie was vigi nk right? or is it possible she claimed a kill that wasn't hers?
i'm trying to see who could have the most chance of having a no-power role for possible soup, but even you sloon have claimed that you could prove yourself, so unless you're lying too, then I dunno. i'm really on the fence here with the poe

from what I understand, only way last standing mafia can soup is if they are powerless goon right? that person would want to make it out before the other mafia assuming other mafia has role abilities. did we see a goon flip? was tsp a goon? wonder if we already flipped the 1 goon or something

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021
Let's just start reading mafia isos and see what comes out of it.
Marmot:
... and that's it.
Dizzy:
I think this looks like a sincere salutation between these two. This may or may not be the first time these two have played in a game together since the 2020 Champs finale. If that is the case, excitement and enthusiasm at seeing each other is reasonable. There might be a slight town lean for dya in this in that the greeting appears sincere, and they might have already seen each other behind the scenes if they were in a mafia chat together. But this point barely registers enough to warrant a mention. It is there.
... but then Dizzy looks self-conscious immediately after. Hm.
JPIC and Dizzy trade guillo town reads. JPIC's post feels a bit superfluous, but more so in a careless, stream-of-consciousness kind of way, rather than a strained and obligatory interaction.
These are strained words. See how hard Dizzy works to convey a sense of enjoyment. There is not enough here for me to offer an opinion as to the source of that strain; whether it is because Dizzy is feeling overwhelmed at being mafia in such a loud thread, or because he doesn't know how to act naturally in such a small interaction with a teammate.
We may presume that Dizzy is feigning surprise/confusion about this mechanic here. We can make no such assumptions about Belzy. I do question whether Dizzy would choose to latch onto this post if Belzy was his teammate, though. Not impossible, but it's a micro-interaction that seems slightly less likely for some reason.
This exchange was going nowhere until Dizzy blurted out a town read on Belzy. Belzy seems to make reference to something adjacent to suspicion ("you don't come across townly this way"), but I'm unsure what that is in reference to. I do not think there is enough here for me to read Belzy through this exchange, but this relationship is one that I will keep an eye on as I progress.
Does Dizzy make this post if JPIC is his teammate? It seems more or less unprompted. It comes just a few minutes after Dizzy had made this post justifying the Guillo town read to Radishes. There is exactly one post in the thread between Dizzy's Guillo post and the JPIC town read. It is this post from Belzy:
It is impossible to tell whether Dizzy's JPIC post was prompted in any way by Belzy's post. They came just a couple minutes apart. In a vacuum, it is a strange look no matter how you slice it. Mafia Dizzy responds to Town Master Radishes to justify a town read on Town Guillotine, then after a few moments of silence, blurts out "Hey maybe JPIC is town too." Why JPIC? Why that moment? Idk.
This exchange is confirmed cute.
I have talked about this post previously. Dizzy seemed hyper aware of an alleged slip from LinearPoint on Day 1. I'll do my best to look at this progression with fresh eyes this time around.
bonus content
Anyway...
Just highlighting this post to emphasize a point about how Dizzy is interacting with known teammates here. Dizzy has (previously) defended Marmot, but appears to be backing off of that slightly at this point. Lacking the full context, but I would assume that the Marmot suspicion is growing at this point. More importantly, Dizzy introduces a new "very town" read on Alexa here. And Dizzy has also previously voiced support of Mac's soft push on me. So that's 3 teammates who Dizzy has, at one time or another, voiced support of in some form. 2 of them have been outright town reads. Dizzy does not look inclined to drive a bus over anyone at this stage. May be a bad look for JPIC. Potentially also Belzy.
End of Page 1, so I'm gonna hit submit and continue.
Marmot:

... and that's it.

It is certainly not the case that both Belzy and JPIC are Dizzy's teammates. Belzy opens this post by declaring an early suspicion on Dizzy, but then spends the rest of the post talking about things that are in no way related to that read. On the one hand, I like that Belzy called Dizzy out so early. On the other hand, I dislike that this post does not actually offer any explanation of the read. We are introduced to the idea of suspecting Dizzy, but are given no impetus to push that suspicion forward.Belzy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 7:10 am I think there is a good chance Dyslexicon is scum this game, but I don't want to make the mistake to tunnel vision day 1. So I just will try to read more players, and because EOD is at midnight for me, I am always here at EOD and I can wait with voting until later. I have no idea if it helps to speculate who would pick who, but I always believe the best way to scum hunt is to read someone as either scummy or not scummy

Does Day 1 Dizzy name half of his teammates as town reads during his catch-up? I don't know. it is not impossible. NOTE that Dizzy neglects to name JPIC. I am again unsure what this means. If I have to pick a side, I would say that Dizzy is likely to be more conscious of his fake read on Mafia JPIC than Town JPIC. So JPIC being omitted from the list in this case can be seen as a good thing. But I am hardly convinced of that, and I could easily go either way on that. If it matters at all. Idk again.Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 9:12 am On page 16 or something

These are three consecutive posts. Not just in Dizzy's ISO, but in the thread as a whole. Nobody else spoke a word in the time that Dizzy made these three posts, which all came within a 2-minute window. I bring this up so that I can shout the following in all caps: DO YOU SEE THIS? ARE YOU LOOKING AT THIS? AND, AFTER LOOKING AT IT, DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT I AM ON THE SAME TEAM AS DYSLEXICON AND MARMOT AT THIS MOMENT?Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 9:20 am We should not chop Marmot D1. He's probably town and in any case his alignment will show, and I'd rather have him around if he's town.

I have not looked at any wagons or read any of your analysis on them. I'm currently still in the middle of ISOing Dizzy, but I can take a moment to look at something else. What does NF mean?

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021
Getting Dizzier:
First time acknowledging TSP in the game. Just noting it because TSP is the last of the flipped wolves that Dizzy has interacted with. It is a generic question to weird TSP shenanigans.
Is it possible all three of the names in this exchange are mafia? Yes! Likely? I dunno. Dizzy has "been wondering about this for a while" but has pressed absolutely nobody to talk about it and done zero work to find out the truth despite having allegedly almost read the whole game. Noted.
I remember previously expressing confusion about JPIC and Radishes being listed separately from everyone else. Still confused.
Belzy asks a question and Dizzy gives an answer. Noted. Marmot is underwhelming now. So there's a bus. It's a pretty slick move if Mafia Belzy asks Mafia Dizzy to give a read on Mafia Marmot like this. Not impossible, but it's a small micro interaction that I kinda like for Belzy.
This is either Dizzy sticking up for a teammate or trying to dig up suspicion against a low hanging fruit. Considering how limply Dizzy has pursued this angle, and the alleged "town potential", I am inclined to say that this is a bad look for LinearPoint. I do not get the sense that Dizzy actually wants to be told that LinearPoint has slipped. Intead, it looks like Dizzy wants to talk about LinearPoint so that the "slip" can be argued away.
There is a sabie mention in the spoiler of the first post. Together, these two posts are Dizzy's first acknowledgments of sabie's presence in this game. Given Dizzy's propensity toward not bussing thus far, I am inclined to call this a good look for sabie.
I am starting to feel as though the Dizzy/Belzy dynamic is a good look for Belzy. Belzy is constantly the aggressor in these exchanges, and Dizzy's responses feel a bit guarded and safe. If they are partners, their tones are way out of sync in all of their interactions. I would be impressed if that is an act.
JPIC expressed skepticism of our Radishy friend, Dizzy makes jokes and goads him along.
Aight Belzy might just be town then.
Hold on, let's go see what Falcon is asking me about now. Hitting submit so we can all see where I'm at currently. It's important.

Dude...I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna wade through this novella.Sloonei wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 2:17 am Let's just start reading mafia isos and see what comes out of it.
Marmot:
A nothing comment providing some background for LinearPoint's post gimmick. Okay.Marmot wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 11:51 pmafaik, Neeko in LoL talks in 3rd person.LinearPoint wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 11:49 pmNeeko wanted to try something new. Best not to read into it.
... and that's it.
Dizzy:
I think this looks like a sincere salutation between these two. This may or may not be the first time these two have played in a game together since the 2020 Champs finale. If that is the case, excitement and enthusiasm at seeing each other is reasonable. There might be a slight town lean for dya in this in that the greeting appears sincere, and they might have already seen each other behind the scenes if they were in a mafia chat together. But this point barely registers enough to warrant a mention. It is there.Spoiler: show
... but then Dizzy looks self-conscious immediately after. Hm.Spoiler: show
A slightly more substantial exchange with Belzy, in that Belzy at least asked Dizzy a somewhat relevant question. Dizzy's answer looks... like an answer, I guess. This tells me nothing.Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 6:30 amBelzy! I’m happy that you’re playing.
And I’m not very motivated for this game, at least not until at least half of us has died. Hope we all die soon.
JPIC and Dizzy trade guillo town reads. JPIC's post feels a bit superfluous, but more so in a careless, stream-of-consciousness kind of way, rather than a strained and obligatory interaction.Spoiler: show
These are strained words. See how hard Dizzy works to convey a sense of enjoyment. There is not enough here for me to offer an opinion as to the source of that strain; whether it is because Dizzy is feeling overwhelmed at being mafia in such a loud thread, or because he doesn't know how to act naturally in such a small interaction with a teammate.Spoiler: show
Spoiler: showWe may presume that Dizzy is feigning surprise/confusion about this mechanic here. We can make no such assumptions about Belzy. I do question whether Dizzy would choose to latch onto this post if Belzy was his teammate, though. Not impossible, but it's a micro-interaction that seems slightly less likely for some reason.
Spoiler: showThis exchange was going nowhere until Dizzy blurted out a town read on Belzy. Belzy seems to make reference to something adjacent to suspicion ("you don't come across townly this way"), but I'm unsure what that is in reference to. I do not think there is enough here for me to read Belzy through this exchange, but this relationship is one that I will keep an eye on as I progress.
Does Dizzy make this post if JPIC is his teammate? It seems more or less unprompted. It comes just a few minutes after Dizzy had made this post justifying the Guillo town read to Radishes. There is exactly one post in the thread between Dizzy's Guillo post and the JPIC town read. It is this post from Belzy:Spoiler: showIt is certainly not the case that both Belzy and JPIC are Dizzy's teammates. Belzy opens this post by declaring an early suspicion on Dizzy, but then spends the rest of the post talking about things that are in no way related to that read. On the one hand, I like that Belzy called Dizzy out so early. On the other hand, I dislike that this post does not actually offer any explanation of the read. We are introduced to the idea of suspecting Dizzy, but are given no impetus to push that suspicion forward.Belzy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 7:10 am I think there is a good chance Dyslexicon is scum this game, but I don't want to make the mistake to tunnel vision day 1. So I just will try to read more players, and because EOD is at midnight for me, I am always here at EOD and I can wait with voting until later. I have no idea if it helps to speculate who would pick who, but I always believe the best way to scum hunt is to read someone as either scummy or not scummy
It is impossible to tell whether Dizzy's JPIC post was prompted in any way by Belzy's post. They came just a couple minutes apart. In a vacuum, it is a strange look no matter how you slice it. Mafia Dizzy responds to Town Master Radishes to justify a town read on Town Guillotine, then after a few moments of silence, blurts out "Hey maybe JPIC is town too." Why JPIC? Why that moment? Idk.
This exchange is confirmed cute.Spoiler: show
Does Day 1 Dizzy name half of his teammates as town reads during his catch-up? I don't know. it is not impossible. NOTE that Dizzy neglects to name JPIC. I am again unsure what this means. If I have to pick a side, I would say that Dizzy is likely to be more conscious of his fake read on Mafia JPIC than Town JPIC. So JPIC being omitted from the list in this case can be seen as a good thing. But I am hardly convinced of that, and I could easily go either way on that. If it matters at all. Idk again.Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 9:12 am On page 16 or something
Town:
Alexa
Guillo
Sean
Marmot

This list could probably be longer, but these are the people I care more about.
I have talked about this post previously. Dizzy seemed hyper aware of an alleged slip from LinearPoint on Day 1. I'll do my best to look at this progression with fresh eyes this time around.Spoiler: show

Anyway...
Just highlighting this post to emphasize a point about how Dizzy is interacting with known teammates here. Dizzy has (previously) defended Marmot, but appears to be backing off of that slightly at this point. Lacking the full context, but I would assume that the Marmot suspicion is growing at this point. More importantly, Dizzy introduces a new "very town" read on Alexa here. And Dizzy has also previously voiced support of Mac's soft push on me. So that's 3 teammates who Dizzy has, at one time or another, voiced support of in some form. 2 of them have been outright town reads. Dizzy does not look inclined to drive a bus over anyone at this stage. May be a bad look for JPIC. Potentially also Belzy.Spoiler: show

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D2a
At this exact moment, I would point to LinearPoint and JPIC. But that is based on a page and a half of Dizzy's ISO being fresh in my mind, in which nothing conclusive is offered on either of them. But the only other option here is dya, and I feel better about them than the other two.falcon45ca wrote: ↑Fri Feb 11, 2022 6:47 pmNANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 7:04 pm Guillotine (9): 112, Creature, Sloonei, dyachei, Justplayingitcool, LinearPoint,

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021
The Dizzy Saga: Part III
Dya shoots Marmot. Dizzy pats Dya on the back. If I stare through the computer screen and try to gaze into Dizzy's soul, I sense honest disappointment and frustration in that "Nice job". Dizzy is positively SEETHING, can't you tell? Maybe. I dunno. Tentatively calling it a good look for dya. In addition to the much greater Good Luck that comes with, you know, blasting a mafioso on Day 1.
More palpable frustration from Dizzy, this time directed at Belzy. Cool. Belzy town, sorry for entertaining doubts.
The bottommost section of this post introduces a bit of Suspect Salad, comprised of Mac, Scotty, and sabie. I don't think sabie names two suspects in a three-player pool. One feels like the right number. Soft good look for sabie.
Laying it on too thick to be dya's teammate. Also noting that Dizzy is coming out more aggressively against macyo here. Distancing, but not quite rising to the level of "bussing" yet.
*pretend shock face*
Coooool. Without looking at sabie's ISO to confirm whether or not there is anything there RE: Marmot, I do not like this. I didn't like it earlier either. Dizzy has previously expressed the idea of suspicion toward sabie. Why pass up on a great opportunity to shade her here?
These two are not teammates.

This exists. It tells me very little about dya. But...
... this tells me that Porscha is ALSO not Dizzy's teammate. Fancy that.
Here is an interaction with Jpic that exists.
I can once again confirm that this JPIC interaction exists.
Creature is the "he" in these two posts. There continues to be absolutely nothing of interest between Dizzy and JPIC, but they are talking to each other quite a bit.
Four confirmed towns + sabie. Okay.
---------------------------------------------------
Thus concludes the Dizzy saga.
Condensed thoughts on the remaining uncomfirmed players:
Belzy is town. Dizzy gets visible frustrated with Belzy's constant suspicion at multiple points, and Belzy never relents. If they are teammates, this is absolutely masterful distancing. Their tones are way out of sync and they both look completely authentic.
And, of course, if Belzy is town then so is Porscha. Dizzy also hopped on the Porscha wagon Day 1, which is a point in her favor independent of Belzy.
Dya looks slightly good for Dizzy's reaction to marmot's death. It does not look like Dizzy expected it to happen and I could sense some deflation when it happened.
A few question marks surrounding each of sabie and JPIC. More so JPIC because Dizzy talks at him several times, but the two of them never have anything of substance to say to or about the other.
LinearPoint looks like a partner that Dizzy can't justify a town read, but also does not want to push hard.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021
So not sure if anyone ever looked back at this when I brought it up before, but I thought it might be worth noting that this is how mac and dizzy interacted as teammates. On the surface it doesn't seem like teammate interaction but now we know this was all obviously fabricated.Phil and Gloria wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 6:51 amI think there is a chance mafia was voting Marmot but it's not as big of a chance as one of the mafia voting town Scotty who looked like a viable mischop counterwagon to Marmot.Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 6:47 amI actually haven't even made my mind up about you. I've felt that you haven't really landed anything coupled with Alison's concerns from earlier. Maybe you have landed things now on me/MR. Which I don't think is good. Admittedly I haven't payed too much attention to MR. But like ok.Phil and Gloria wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 6:38 amTbh several people have done that but it's not like I'd expect you to dig through game this size. The main thing that I've arrived at as a result of the Marmot flip is believing that there are 2 triumvirates that maybe contain a wolf in them. That being the people voting for Scotty (a confirmed town), and the people who were voting Paopan with the latter predicated on Paopan being town themselves. Given Paopan isn't flipped I am preferring to dig into the Scotty voters whomst are you, Creature and Master Radishes. Creature has been handling me in good faith and hasn't really pinged me while you and Radishes have not only had shit reads on me you've had shit reads on me, you've also both been lacking in general. Though to Radishes credit I can see the wheels turning whereas with you, right now, you're resorting to some weird defeated general butthurt ate thing that I don't vibe with at all.Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 6:34 am Anyway, I'm going to start to look at Marmot connections, cause I don't think anyone did that yet
Do you think there was no mafia who voted Marmot when he died?
Do you think it's meaningful where people voted, and how?
Are you seriously asking me if I think where people vote and how is meaningful? Like what is the implication here? Of course I fucking do. And so do you because you were about to go searching for my reasoning for voting Marmot? What is this question?

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
I had been unsure because the claim on the Phil and Gloria shot seemed weirdly delayed but yeah this is a good point that MR would have received a second shot. Only way that wouldn't have happened is if falcon didn't ever actually check MR and just said they were town. I thought about falcon and it seemed like it wouldn't have made sense to fake a red on tsp so early in the day when they could have potentially tried for a town mischop.Sloonei wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 2:34 amYou targeted Master Radishes Night 1.

I have not looked at any wagons or read any of your analysis on them. I'm currently still in the middle of ISOing Dizzy, but I can take a moment to look at something else. What does NF mean?

Im a wolf because I haven’t claimed?Porscha wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 1:12 am I dunno I feel like most players except like LP and JPIC are playing with the same assumptions of sabie / dya possible, with LP, JPIC, maybe you (sloon) are in poe.
by way of understanding I see myself, belzy, falcon, and therefore also creature as confirmed town. so unless falcon and creature pull a sick 180 on us then I see us the confirmed town at this moment
I think it's good sabie didnt shoot pao. I know dya shot marmot but it's hard to read them as of recent just due to lack of posts. I feel LP comes off as legit as far as their role and how it interacted with alexa (who I also would have maybe given vest to early on in game) and it might have just been unlucky.
jpic talks townie but they are also only person without some kind of role claim to some degree and unfortunately it just looks kinda bad for them. like idk I feel like also pao could have just revealed and then saved himself from getting voted off and since mafia has *still* not souped then like idk. maybe jpic is goon with no role abilities trying to make it out before even his other teammate tbh. possible neeko is trying same thing by lying about her role and then framing that she role abilities b/c of alexa is possible.
also it's confirmed sabie was vigi nk right? or is it possible she claimed a kill that wasn't hers?
i'm trying to see who could have the most chance of having a no-power role for possible soup, but even you sloon have claimed that you could prove yourself, so unless you're lying too, then I dunno. i'm really on the fence here with the poe
I have hinted at my role, and have provided some mech info from it

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D3
Hmmmm Alexa did end up being mafia bulletproof. The more I read LPs ISO the more I feel like it could be them. As sloonei said though I'm not sure about who the remaining teammate would be.

Linearpoint, Creature, Ilario, Alexa
This is my solve.
React
It'd have to be that Alexa was Mafia Bulletproof and ilario coach Neeko to fake claim giving a vest to Alexa.
And why does Creature then show up in the solve? It just feels randomly tacked on.
Nutella said that she also thinks she didn't see soup initially so pretty sure it was edited after Neeko read it.
Neeko did read the thread as soon as it was posted since she was on, so it's probable that's what happened.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
It's really not that important. You can if you want to, but I don't write those posts because I think people need to read them. I do it for my own sake and so that I can reference back to it in later conversations.Justplayingitcool wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 10:54 am Sloonei i will read your walls once i have recovered from hangover
The key point with regards to you is that I felt your interactions with Dizzy were all very hollow.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
The work Sloonei is putting in gives me a pause on reading them. Lp is a good lynch today, but then the final one is still something my mind is doubting.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
I started off this day with LP+JPIC, and then LP+Sloonei.
JPIC looked good for their vote on TSP, but maybe worth to look into the context.
Dya, I still give them toen credits for the Marmot kill, but that is potentially dangerous to do.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
I have been reading JPIC's ISO but not commenting on it. I was surprised at how underwhelming his TSP interactions were this time around. Granted, I am reading him through the lens of him being mafia right now.
He consistently suggests that TSP is a suspect, but never makes a real push on him or engages in any meaningful discussion around him. It has plenty of distancing potential.
The TSP interactions are what I initially gave him a town-read for, but I no longer feel that is warranted. None of his interactions with the other flipped wolves are inspiring either. The same can be said of his interactions with LinearPoint.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
I also did not like JPIC's reaction to ilario's claim. It felt exaggerated. He was one of the most vocal opponents to the notion of "trusting a 3p." But, as I was arguing at the time, we were not being asked to trust a 3p. ilario poisoned alexa, then presented his argument for doing so, then told us he was 3p. All actions had already been set in motion by the time the claim came out. Jpic's resistance to ilario feels now like a sort of smoke screen to keep us from diving too deeply into the "Alexa is mafia" worldview that day.

Re: GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 D5
What if alexa had flipped town (as that was what I was expecting to happen) and ilario was still around. We just blindly allow a 3p running amok in the game
